- Panthers reportedly request interview with Ravens OC Todd Monken
The Carolina Panthers want to talk with the soon-to-be Most Valuable Player's play-caller.

His name has come into demand upon orchestrating an impressive campaign for the NFL's sixth-ranked offense, a unit that has averaged 370.4 total yards per game. Leading the offense is current MVP favorite Lamar Jackson , who Monken has helped pass for a career-high 3,678 yards.
Prior to joining the Ravens in 2023, Monken was the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for the two-time national champion Georgia Bulldogs. His run in Athens lasted from 2020 to 2022.
The 57-year-old also has prior experience as an NFL play-caller. He served as the offensive coordinator for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 2016 to 2018 and for the Cleveland Browns in 2019.
Monken is now the third known candidate for the Panthers' head-coaching gig, with Cincinnati offensive coordinator Brian Callahan and Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson also reportedly receiving requests.
